[USER=82343]@bk1[/USER] firstly, I don't disagree with your thoughts, because what you are stating is acurate.But the problem as you say is renewables are variable, the issue that brings up is storage, to store the energy so that it can be used at a later date.Right storage has its own problems, if you want to use that stored energy in medium that can be transported, then the issue becomes more complex, batteries would need to be huge to carry enough energy to make transporting it worthwhile. Obviously pumped hydro cant be transported, other than by being connectdd to the grid.So what is required is something that can be produced by renewable energy, that is compact and can be transported and has the highest possible energy density by volume.So hydrogen even though inefficient to produce, ticks the other two boxes, so a lot of money will be spent trying to get the first box ticked.
